David attempts to restore peace at locked down Brookfield and Josh makes his choice.

Josh has hesitated before telling his dad he won鈥檛 be taking the offer at Home Farm, or getting the spraying licence. He wasn鈥檛 sure he鈥檇 understand. He doesn鈥檛 want to be a hired hand for the rest of his life. At least he neatly fulfilled his task to get the harvester mended, courtesy of his contact Miserable Mick. And telling David about his decision was so much easier after that 鈥� even if he did have to put up with his dreadful taste in music, and his bad guitar playing. No, 鈥楧isco Dave鈥� can prance around all he likes as long as Josh can expand his egg business. It was great to find out about the history of his name: the initials JM coming out of his baby name 鈥楯unior Me鈥�. So he is kind of named for his dad, after all.
David鈥檚 happy about the silage. He marvels at how Josh managed to get the forage harvester mended. He doesn鈥檛 know how his son does it. He observes Josh is an odd mix: cocky but only up to a point. He鈥檚 relieved Josh didn鈥檛 laugh at his guitar playing. He feels Josh鈥檚 plans for upsizing the egg business make sense. Even though Josh gives him a lot of headaches, just as he must have done to his own father, it doesn鈥檛 stop him praying his children鈥檚 dreams will come true.
